The acclaimed series of complete Bach cantatas from Ton Koopman and The Amsterdam Baroque, originally begun on the now-defunct Erato label, has been rescued by Challenge Classics. The cantatas in this 15th volume belong mostly to the transitional period between the second and the third yearly cycle of cantatas, i.e. the spring of 1725. This series was awarded the Deutsche Schallplattenpreis "Echo Klassik" in 1997.
